Nice! Taiwan 🇹🇼 extends its trial visa-free entry to Filipinos 🇵🇭 until 31 July 2024. This was the news I was waiting so that there's a huge chance that I can attend #WikidataCon happening in October in Taipei.

One unexpected thing I learned at #wikidatacon is that a significant amount of organizing and discussion seems to be happening on Telegram?

I am blown away. In #WikidataCon 2021 most of the work I've been doing the last year was recognized with the very best kind of recognition: the community awards.

This was #WikidataCon 2021! Thank you to all participants for making this event a success. Even though we couldn't meet in person, we really enjoyed the energy and love for Wikidata. It was a pleasure to celebrate #WikidataBirthday with all of you!

Awesome to see @despens present about the Wikibase Stakeholder Group at #wikidatacon, which is a cooperative for using, building and maintaining extensions to the Wikibase software that is behind Wikidata.

It would be super to see more involvement from the creators of Wikibase core though, or maybe that's happening already?

So much info at #WikidataCon. I can't stop opening tabs!

I learned this morning at #wikidatacon that Wikimedia Commons are testing a SPARQL endpoint:

Wikidata are doing some amazing work sharing strategy and information about how to manage the Wikidata SPARQL service in terms of disaster planning.
